Description: Wireless Networks : Security and Analysis, Hardcover by Holt, Alan; Huang, Chi-yu, ISBN 184996274X, ISBN-13 9781849962742, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Wireless communication has the advantage of mobility and obviates the need for cabling, but is inherently less secure and is subject to the heavy regulation of the radio frequency spectrum. Nevertheless, the allocation of unlicensed parts of the spectrum has facilitated the growth in wireless local are networks (WLANs). WLAN technology is progressing at a rapid pace, but the most widely accepted WLAN standard is the IEEE . This unique and highly practical text introduces the principles of WLANs based upon the IEEE standards, demonstrating how to configure equipment in order to implement various network solutions. Readers will gain understanding of the security implications of wireless networks and learn how vulnerabilities can be mitigated. Additionally, th examines the underlying protocols and explains how to build mathematical models in order to analyze performance in a WLAN environment. Topics and features: -Presents a practical approach supported by the extensive use of examples and detailed instructions -Discusses various wireless network solutions across a number of different vendor platforms, including Cisco Aironet, Alactel-Lucent Omniaccess and Meru Networks -Provides numerous mathematical models for analyzing the performance of IEEE standards, and shows how to build these models using Maple -Examines issues of wireless security and describes how to implement a wireless network with enterprise security -Investigates the medium access control sub-layer, and models for performance analysis of the MAC layer -Reviews the physical sub-layers of , describing modulation techniques and examining how devices adapt to changes in the RE environment. A highly useful text/reference for industry professionals, undergraduate and graduate-level students will also find this book an ideal companion to a university course on wireless networking.
